Rainforest Falls VBS Ultimate Starter Kit Plus Digital

Step through the mist into Rainforest Falls, overflowing with wild waterfalls, towering trees, and colorful creatures. Beneath a canopy of chattering birds and howling monkeys, kids plunge into a lifelong adventure of discovering the nature of God. They’ll explore what it means to be rooted in relationship with God, their creator, a safe place in life’s storms.

This kit includes physical resources and samples just like the standard starter kit, but it also comes with the Digital Download Access Code. This unique access code unlocks the content on the Digital Download Center. You’ll have instant access to digital leader guides, music, videos, and more. It opens all-new ways to manage, share, and utilize your VBS content. The Rainforest Falls VBS Ultimate Starter Kit Plus Digital allows you to deliver resources with the touch of a button. You can hand volunteers the manuals from your Starter Kit or share your download center login with your volunteers so they can view and download the content they need right to their devices. The Plus Digital kit is also a great backup for leaders who might lose that ever-important leader manual at the 11th hour!

Due to copyright restrictions, any starter kit that has been returned with the Digital Download Access Code being used will not be eligible for a refund.
